The FutureheadsThe Futureheads, Let's Buy Happiness and Maximo Park frontman Paul Smith have all lent their music to a new fundraising album called NExEA.

Sales of the record will go to the Disaster Emergency Committee's East Africa Crisis Appeal.

Said Paul Smith of his motivation:

"I saw the shocking footage from Eastern Africa on the news like many others will have done and I felt pretty helpless. I'm glad I was approached to contribute something because it's an amazing cause. I hope my slightly dodgy demo might have enough charm to sit alongside the strong line-up of other North Eastern musicians and encourage people to buy a copy".
